Summary
In southeast London, a young mother has been accused of an unthinkable crime: poisoning her own child - and then leaving him to die. The mother, Ellie, is secretive and challenging - she's had a troubled upbringing - but does that mean she's capable of murder?
Balancing the case with raising her disabled five-year-old son, criminal defence lawyer Sarah Kellerman sets out in desperate pursuit of the truth. But when her own child becomes unwell, Sarah realises she's been drawn into a dangerous game.
Unsettling and compulsive, In the Blood is a chilling study of class, motherhood and power from a new star in crime fiction.

Great story - talented narrator!
Loved the story, but the narrator was fantastic: all the different accents were superb! Really enjoyed it.

Gripping and interesting story line
Wonderful book in storyline and narration I have some 250 books in my library and I’ve never heard narration like it before!
I couldn’t wait for my listen to it!
I know of the writer and interesting that she uses her real life situation in the book!
Well worth getting!

In the Blood
Excellent narration.
3.5 for story- just a few points re having a SEND child felt a little wobbly- I’ll probably find she has an SEND child herself then I’ll have to eat my words!
Characters developed well enough- a book for passing the time, not changing the world but a welcome read.

Excellent!
From the moment I started listening to ‘In the Blood’ I was hooked. Kelly Adam’s narration was so good. Looking forward to my next Ruth Mancini novel.

Fantastic!
The first book I have read in years, and first experience of an Audio book. I was hooked! So many unexpected twists. I couldn’t wait to have time to listen each day.
So refreshing to hear a storyline inclusive of disability.
Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommended.

A very human drama
It’s not often the lead character in a crime drama has a child with learning difficulties, it enriched the story enormously, the characters were beautifully drawn and the narrator was excellent, thoroughly recommended
